INSANE ASYLUM ADMINISTRATION.

There have been OF late many and serious
complaints preferred against attendants in
insane asylums, and after making full allow
ance fer exaygeration and for the inventive
tendencies Of patients suffering from brain
diseases, enough solid fact remains to justify
the conclusion that there is far too much in
humanity often praCtised in such institutions.
That this shonld be so need not cause sur
prise, when it is considered that the men
who are employed to attend upon the insane
arc for the most part not prepared by any
special training or aptitude for the work /;
that they apparently belong to the class OF
unskilled laborcrs that their pay and general
pos ition not such as to offer any attrac tion
10 more competent persons and that having
almost entire control over patients considered
irresponsible, they are inevitably tempted to
abuse their pOwers. To these considerations
must be added the fact that the work to be
done really imposes a heavy strain upon the
temper Of the attendants. Many of the pa
ticnts are fractions, perversc, insub ordinate.
pcevish. treachcrous, and in all ways diff
cult to get along with and to keep in order
Of course, all this only shows the more clear
ly the importance Of providing trained Mt
tcndan1s of proved good temper and human
ity; but when the reason for not employing
such keepers is sought it will be found TO
consist largely, If not entirely in insufliciency
Of means.
Boards elected or appointed to superintend
public insane ssylums are necessarily under
the pressure OF continuous demand for
economical administration. They are not able,
il they are willing. TO administer their trusts
npon the broadest and most scientific pin
ciples. Probably most Of them consider that
so long as lunatcs are looked after in n
general way it does not signify to whom they
are intrusted. In any case there il only so
much whrrewifh TO pay for attendance, and
the eutcome is that the cheapest kind of
service is engaged II has been shown recent

Of attendants cannot be secured for any such
| wages, and that the men who are willing 60
take these wages can hardly be other than
incompetent. As to the medical men In charge
Of and employed at asylums, they rarely pos
scss the powers they ought to have. AS rule
they do not engage the attendants and also
ms rtac their own duties are too oncrous to
enable them to exercise the constant vigilance
which, considering the general character OF
the service, could alone prevent the perpetra
zion Of occasional brutalities.
But when all these circumstances have been
taken into account the fact remains that the
care of the insane is not what it shonad be.
1t is not less plain that if the abuses practised
are primarily due TO want OF mems Tor the
support of these institutions, that want must
be supplied. 1t oaght to be made rule IN
all such cases that none but properly trained
attendants should he employed and II 1T be
alleged that there are no schools for the ed
ucation of nurses for the insane, then such
schools should be established. For it Is the
mcrest humbug and hypocrisy for lis to pre-
tend that We have made immense advances
over the manner Of treating the insane which
prevailed century ago, while 1T Is notorious
that we have thousands OF lunatcs suffering
from all complications Of cerebral disease to-
pcther in enormous barracks, without adequate
room without adequate medical attendance,
and frequently in charge of a class Of ignorant
and brutal men of type 90 low that they
would not be employed by humane man to
drive cattle The remedy for this state OF
things does not lie in furnishing here and there
n ruffian, or in discharging the brutal when
they are found ont. 1t lies in reforming the
system: in adopting methods which viii ex-
clude this unfit element altogether, and which
will secure the services Of competent and in
tellgent and trustworthy attendants. What
ever this reform may cost it viii have to be
undertaken, and the sooner it is put in motion
the better.

Talk OF Opposition Tugs.

The matter of extortionate charges
for tug boat services at the mouth of
the Columbia is becoming a serious
one. At present it costs l4s Cd per
ton more to send wheat from Port
land to Liverpool than from San
Francisco. 1t is rumored that mana
ger Potter, of the Union Pacific, is
about to take the tug boat business
in hand, and that it he does not some
one else will. There ought to be two
good tugs at the mouth OF the Colum-

to Portland back to sea at reasonable
rates. 1t is not necessary that the
work be done cheaply, but reasonably.

Tbs latest sensation In the religious
world is from a church congress in
England In this congress one of the
English canons, Isaac Taylor, read a
paper on ISLAM in Africa" Among
other things he said: "Over a large
part Of the world Islamism as a mis-
sionary religion is more successful
than Christianity. Christianity in
some sections is actually receding be-
fore its rival" The faith of Islam al
ready extends from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. 1t controls 50,000,000 out
of 150,000,000 in India, and more than
half of all Africans. 1t is not the
dash and spread of early Moham-
mechanism that he finds hard to ex-
plain, but Its continued hold. "An
African tribe once converted to Islam
never embraces Christianity. Though
quite untitled for the higher races, it
is eminently adapted to be civilizing
and elevating religion for barbarous
tribes" Not content with these start
ling words, canon Taylor goes on to
say: islam has done more for civil
ization than has Christianity" SIS
lam is the most powerful total absti-
nence association in the world, where
as the extension of European trade
means the extension of drunkenness
and vice and the degradation of the
people" islam introduces a knowl-
